Clearly these are two very different approaches to how to not only run your practice, but also on how to react in life to any circumstance that heads your way.
It’s rather easy to get bogged down in the swamp of “should haves” and “if onlys” in life. “If only I wouldn’t have bought ‘X’,” or “I should have handled ‘Y’ better,” or “If only I had more time, money, love, etc.” What’s certain in life is that it’s going to keep happening--circumstances, events, emotions, and people…it’s just going to continue on and on. But what you have power over is how you react to life and all that it entails.
Fear-based driven performance will have many in these economic climates scurrying to survive. They will react to situations with anger, frustration, terror, sadness, and resignation that they are doomed to not succeed and live their dreams. This will lead to driving family, employees, and patients away—I know that “away” is not where they want them to go, really—and so do you.
Others, when operating from Confidence-based driven performance, will succeed in any given situation because they know, because of a high deserve level and commitment to success, that life is 10% of what happens, and 90% of how they react to it. These people will see the opportunity in every challenge and they will work as a team, both in the practice and at home, on producing the outcome that they desire most, that benefits all involved.
One isn’t better than the other—that’s simply a matter of opinion…do you want alienation or accomplishment? Sinking or succeeding? Fear or fun?
Your outlook on performance is going to be the key to getting whatever it is that you want in 2009 and on!
